Such an unbelievable ruling, but this is really the best possible response. If conservatives thought they were persecuted before…

I get it as a way of making a statement that needs to be made, but I'm not a fan of countering discrimination with discrimination. Makes me wonder if something more along the lines of requiring people to make a proper|positive stand before serving them could be a better approach? In this case, for instance, "we will serve only those who will affirm that they believe that all people are valid and equal regardless of their gender identity, sexual preference, race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status." And, before you serve them make them acknowledge and agree to the statement.

Trump supporters often have manias of persecution. Wouldn't these signs feed it, though?

Probably. But if they don't get it here, they'll find it elsewhere. We shouldn't change things to mollycoddle people who are constantly seeking a reason to be offended.

I can't imagine owning a business and actively promoting your willing to give up sales because of some random person's beliefs.

I fully understand consumers not shopping at a store that puts up signs you disagree with, you can just go to another one.

Nothing wrong in believing in and supporting the good things. I just think I'd not agitate customers if it were my business.

Now that #SupremeCourt says we can discriminate, I'm trying to figure out what to tag content. #NoMAGA #NoRepublicans #QueerOnly #NoBreeders #NoChristians
